I'm not sure what subdivision means in this regard.  I'll look it up.  I
haven't had any success finding QD3D manuals.  developer.apple.com lists a
couple QD3D PDFs, but none of them are manuals.  They are mostly Carbon
specs, and Brian Greenstone's articles on general usage of QD3D, but no
outright manuals, at least not in PDF format.

It is rather strange, as most of Apple's dev files are available as PDFs
of the original hard-copy Inside Mac volumes.
